little excursion...

It is 19.45, the shuttle bus is still not here.
we looked and stared at the bus that stopped at corsia B9, Piazzale Roma
elderly venetians alight from the bus, with groceries in their hand.
our hearts sunk, this bus is definitely not from the Pink house...
then where is their shuttle bus???
are we cheated or something???

first stop, a nice evening view of the grand canal on the bridge. sam decided to be touristy, and i helped him took a pic cos his cam is spoiled. we move on and started our hunt for the cheapest gelato in town. i settled for a scoop on a cup for 1 euros, he got 2 scoops on a cone for 1.5 euros.

violinist by the street. zhangyi, can u do that in spore?
*for the sake of all who dunno who is zhangyi, he is my fellow scout platoon mate, violinist, composer, and he wrote the score for my previous film. a hunk who can do 23 pull-ups effortlessly. sometimes i think that he attached weights or lead to his violin bow to train his biceps*

our last stop... a famous arc i suppose. so many tourists taking pic of it, they even have a spotlight to light it up at night... well... despite the extremely low lighting condition and lack of tripod, im glad i can find a space to support my camera for long exposure... not realli very long la, this one is 1 sec only. its because stupid me forgot to change the ISO...

home sweet home... im back at the apartment already... xing is already back, expected, i never fail to marvel at the speed she walk... it is the scout platoon fast march speed lol...
got down with Sam and tasted a bit of the left over wine from the farewell dinner, he says it is good, but i still can't appreciate it... darn
time to go to zzz... have to wake up at 4.25am to open the door for Sam who needs to reach Trevisto at 8 to catch a flight back to Brussels...
